The 121 runs that were shared across the top three proved vital,
with the middle order struggling to make an impact as they came in
looking to add runs rapidly.

Shoaib Malik's quickfire 18 was the best of the rest as the
designated hosts reached 150-5 from their 20 overs – Adam Zampa
(1-25) the pick of the Australian bowlers to complete their
allocation of four overs, while Mitchell Marsh took 2-6 from his
solitary set of six.

Alex Carey looked intent on restoring some Australian pride as
he launched an early onslaught against Imad Wasim – the opening
bowler going for 20 in the first over as Carey cleared the ropes
twice.

It proved to be a false dawn as wickets began to fall at regular
intervals, too many of the tourists failing to convert good starts
as Shadab Khan (3-19) ripped through them with ease.

Glenn Maxwell's miserable series continued as he was dismissed
for just four, his exit leaving Australia 75-5 at the start of the
11th over.

As desperation began to set in, Australia's choices became rash
and that saw Coulter-Nile comically run out as Andrew Tye sent his
partner back, leaving him stranded as Shadab whipped the bails
off.

Zampa was the last man to fall as Hasan Ali (2-14) wrapped
things up, sending Australia home with their tails between their
legs.
